This is where the 2.7K modes shine and really provide the extra resolution they are promising. Whoa, everything changes with the “medium” field of view.

It seems that the Hero 4 cannot cope with the additional data reading the full sensor in “wide” mode. 2.7K 24, 25, 30, 50, 60 modes are disappointing – absolutely NO difference to the corresponding 1080p modes! This situation changes very positively once the 2.7K modes are used in the “medium” field of view settings.4K all frame rates super detailed and very nice – but the data rate (~64mbit/s) is on the limit and compression artifacts appear if there is a lot of movement – only use for locked down shots or stabilized drone shots.Pah, not for me – squeezed and distorted à looks like wrong aspect ratio 80’s TV Well, what I found is the above statement only holds true for certain modes:

Also, additional image stabilization in post (like warp stabilizer in Premiere Pro) further zooms into the image hence any resolution overhead is highly welcome!

with the GoPro Studio software or Adobe After Effects (in the effects tab use ‘distort’ à ‘optical compensation’ then tick ‘reverse lens correction’ and FOV values of about 70). Having installed the latest firmware 2.0 from February 4 th, I was eager to test the new video modes, 2.7K 60p and 720p240.Ģ.7K p60 should be super useful to apply optical correction in post for the fisheye lens (e.g.

The GoPro Hero 4 Black Edition video modes The lens seems to be the same on both, at least the typical GoPro fisheye and field of view is very similar.

What really pushed me over the fence was the announcement of a firmware update to be released in February 2015 which included new video modes like 2.7K 60p or 720p240! This changed with the announcement of the GoPro Hero 4 about a year ago. Hence, I was not too excited when the GoPro 3+ came to the market. Especially the Protune mode provided a flat color profile which can be tweaked quite heavily without falling apart. 2.7K 24p, 1080p60 or 720p120 in narrow mode) it delivered moiré and aliasing free, high bitrate images. When I bought my first GoPro Hero 3 black edition in February 2013, I was quite fascinated how capable such a small camera can be. In this guest post, he shares his experiences with the GoPro Hero4 which he tested on his ski vacation last week, using the newly announced firmware update for higher slow motion capabilities (report here). He always uses the smallest kit possible – the Panasonic GH2 and the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera are usually his main work horses. On his trips, he has started shooting video for pleasure with amazing results that have brought him a lot of fans on his Vimeo account, not only from enthusiast filmmakers but also from professionals.
